Congress Table Suspends Accreditation for Quiles and Ndongo After Altercations

Published on May 16, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

The Congress Bureau has temporarily suspended press accreditations for Vito Quiles and Bertrand Ndongo, after considering them responsible for repeated altercations in the Chamber. The measure, based on Article 56.2 of the Common Administrative Procedure Law, aims to protect the rights of deputies and journalists in the face of deteriorating coexistence. Both have ten days to appeal the decision.

Cybersecurity as a barrier against disorder in institutions 🔒

Access and permission management in institutional environments resembles a version control system: without clear rules, chaos spreads. The suspension of accreditations applies a logical block similar to that which prevents an unauthorized user from accessing critical directories. Just as a firewall filters malicious traffic, the Bureau has executed a physical security policy that restricts privileges after detecting anomalous behaviors, such as recording in restricted areas or interrupting official communication flows.

The perfect parliamentary troll's manual 🎭

Vito Quiles and Bertrand Ndongo have achieved what many dreamed of: that Congress pays them attention as if they were an unwanted software update. Quiles recorded Zapatero and Sánchez in prohibited areas, like an old-school paparazzo, while Ndongo interrupted a press conference with the elegance of a spam button. The suspension is the equivalent of the operating system having revoked their administrator permissions. Now, ten days to wait and see if the security patch works.
